Marion Victoria Dorn also known as Marion Dorn Kauffer (born in Menlo Park, California on December 25, 1896[1]—died in Tangier, Morocco on January 28, 1964[1]) was a textile designer primarily in the form of wall hangings, carpeting and rugs, however she is also known to have produced wallpaper, graphics, and illustrations.[2] Known for her significant contributions to modern British interiors in particular for her 'sculpted' carpets, she contributed to some of the best-known interiors of the time including the Savoy Hotel, Claridges, the Orion and the Queen Mary.[3] In the late 1930s and early 1940s she created moquette fabric designs for use in London Transport passenger vehicles.[4]
